Lesson 11

LESSON 11 Transits The effects of transits are also important considerations and should be figured for finding daily results. The sub-dasa is a long period and for finding the date of the event we have to consider the transit of the Sun. To find out a daily routine however, the transit of all the planets have to be taken into consideration. The Sarvastakavarga points of each house are used for this procedure. The points of each house in the Sarva chart are taken for each planet that transits that particular house and added together for each day. The average points for a day are 196. More than this means that the person will have a good day. Less than 196 points, means that there will be some worry. From this, we can easily find day to day results and calculate them for weeks, months or years in advance. Example: Let’s say a person has the following Sarva points as shown in the chart below (Figure 1), for an AQUARIUS Ascendant. Figure 1 2

Now suppose we have to find the total points of the day in question. Let’s start with January 23rd, 2001. The transiting planets for this day are shown in the Sarva chart below in RED (Figure 2), as they pass thru these particular signs. We can easily see that The Sun is in Capricorn and will take 27 points, the Moon is in Sagittarius with 31 points, Mars is in Libra with 19 points, Mercury is also in Capricorn with 27 points, Jupiter is in Taurus with 35 points, Venus is in Aquarius with 31 points, and Saturn is also in Taurus with 35 points. If we total all these points, we come up with 205 points for the day. Similarly, on the 24th of January, only the Moon will change signs into Capricorn, so the total points are 201. Figure 2 2

In this way, points for each day can easily be tallied up and tabulated for this person as follows: January 2001 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30

These numbers will show the high points and low points of a person’s daily feelings and moods. From the above calculations, it seems that this person will enjoy the life up to the middle of August 2001. Then, in November, as the points drop down, it indicates a time of more stress and worry.
